These crispy asparagus sticks are a fantastic side dish, but are also a great hand-held appetizer. They're served with a creamy lemon-tarragon dipping sauce. Consider passing them around at your next party!

Place egg in a shallow dish; set aside. In another shallow dish, combine panko, cornmeal, Parmesan cheese, pepper, paprika and ¼ teaspoon salt.

Place flour in a large resealable plastic bag. Snap off and discard woody bases from asparagus spears. Add half of the asparagus spears to flour in plastic bag; toss to coat. Shake off excess flour. Repeat with the remaining asparagus spears.

Dip each asparagus spear in egg; roll in panko mixture. Place in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, leaving ¼-inch space between spears. Roast for 15 to 18 minutes or until golden brown.
